Philip Larkin Love Quotations

Selflessness is like waiting in a hospital In a badly-fitting suit on a cold wet morning. Selfishness is like listening to good jazz With drinks for further orders and a huge fire.

Still, vicious or virtuous, Love suits most of us.

The difficult part of love Is being selfish enough....

What will survive of us is love.

I wonder love can have already set In dreams, when we've not met More times than I can number on one hand.
